2022 saw the 1st Claremont scout troop welcome a new Troop Scouter as Daniel LeJeune picked up the baton – or maybe in the scouting world – the woggle? And it has certainly been a busy year so far – with our Meerkats, Cubs and Scouts taking part in numerous activities and events. The Meerkats …

We started at Teresa Avenue in Camps Bay and finished at Constantia Nek. It was Alex Clark’s First Class Hike and we were a group of four people. The weather was sunny with a few clouds but lots of fog up higher in the mountain. Along the way we found a cool cave and we …

Being PL of a competition that we haven’t done for a few years was rough (last time we attended Kon-Tiki was in 2017). There was a lot of uncertain planning and a bit of confusion to go with it. Pre-build was great and definitely a good idea, although it didn’t help that we decided not …
